Employees & Society

Promoting togetherness

Outstanding achievements and excellent quality are always the result of intensive togetherness. For only by valuing and respecting each other and motivating and inspiring others can a competitive edge continually be gained. schülke has always been aware of this fact and made it an elementary component of its self-image. schülke successes are team successes. The social environment also impacts on the development of a company in many diverse ways: from the neighbourhood at the respective site to the worldwide public. Maintaining good relations and a constructive community are therefore of equally great importance to us at every level.

Identification needs motivation

Valuable products, innovative complete solutions plus a corporate culture based on trust and team spirit: These are the things that result in a sense of identification. Our employees believe in what they do. We are committed to promoting this awareness on a lasting basis. schülke sets great store by internal communication, intensive exchange, mutual support, feedback and recognition. You want to delve deeper into our corporate culture? You can find out more by clicking the menu item Careers. Safety at work and the protection of our employees‘ health form the cornerstones for the further development of our corporate culture. For us, adherence to all legal requirements represents merely a self-evident minimum requirement. By defining extensive, specific safety regulations we are also setting our standards in this regard. Whether fire protection measures, fire-fighting drills or disease prevention and health counselling: schülke is firmly committed to the physical well-being of its employees. For us, a Total Quality goal that does not encompass this aspect is inconceivable.

Indebted to science and research

Together, more is achievable. With this belief in mind, schülke also demonstrates initiative and dependability far beyond internal company-related contexts. For example, we developed an outbreak database for the purpose of recording all major infections which was subsequently handed over to the university of Berlin. This database can be accessed from anywhere in the world for informational and educational purposes. Through the Rudolf Schülke Foundation which was founded back in 1972 we specifically promote research and development in hygiene and microbiology. Scientists from this foundation which is highly regarded among experts are awarded every two years for their outstanding contribution to the specific fields of hygiene, microbiology and preventative medicine.
